# Azure

## AKS

In AKS' web UI under **Kubernetes Services**, choose **Create Kubernetes Service**.

Fill out the project & cluster details.

Install Azure CLI tools (see [the official docs](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/?view=azure-cli-latest) for platform-specific instructions).

Now run:

```sh
az login
az aks get-credentials --resource-group [your resource group] --name [your cluster name]
```

This will merge an entry for your Azure cluster into your local Kubernetes config.

If you run `kubectl config get-contexts`, the table shown should include a context with a `NAME` and `CLUSTER` equal to the cluster name you chose previously.

Select this context if it isn't already selected.

Run `kubectl get ns` to verify that you're able to connect to your Azure cluster.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.garden.io/docs-edge/tutorials/remote-k8s/create-cluster/azure.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
